Cell2 Interface Overview
1
Receive alarms via GSM or CDMA with the Cell2 Interface.
Wireless alarms to your master station
The Cell2 Interface allows you to utilize wireless RTUs with your alarm master station without paying for an
expensive third-party data provider or opening a hole in your firewall to receive alarms on your master station.
Wireless RTUs used to create a lot of unwanted hassle. To send alarms to your master station, you had to pay
your cellular carrier or a third-party data provider for a static IP address. Then, you had to punch a hole in your
firewall to get that data back into your network - a security risk some IT departments simply weren't willing to take.
With the Cell2 Interface, you can now report alarms to your T/Mon or SNMP master station without paying your
cellular carrier for a static IP or creating a security breach. Alarms can be reported via SMS directly to your master
station.
How it Works
Rather than reporting alarms over IP, simply configure your wireless Cell2 to send SMS alarm information to the
Cell2 Interface. The Cell2 Interface then forwards the alarm information to T/Mon (or other SNMP manager) when
polled over LAN using DCPx protocol.
Reporting alarms via SMS rather than IP allows you to bypass the traditional hassles of wireless IP-based alarm
reporting. One Cell2 Interface can support alarms for up to 253 Cell2 Devices, allowing you to cheaply and easily
deploy wireless RTUs or establish a backup alarm-reporting path over wireless devices.
Upgraded Web Browser
The overhauled web interface boasts several time-saving new tools. You'll also notice the impressive speed boost.
Menus load nearly instantly and the entire interface is very responsive.

GPRS/CDMA Wireless Modem6.5
The Cell2 Interface is available with an optional GPRS/GSMor CDMAwireless modem, allowing you to
report alarms from your remote sites without LANor dialup connections via SMS notifications over a
cellular band.
On the back of your Cell2 Interface with a wireless modem, you'll see the antenna node protrude from
the back panel of the unit and a label above the node indicating the type of modem - GPRS/GSM
(Sprint) or CDMA (Verizon) - installed in your unit.
Note: You cannot access to your Cell2 Interface's web or TTYinterfaces over cellular connection. You
must configure the unit via the back-side craft connection or over LAN.
Note: If your Cell2 Interface model is CDMAenabled: The Electronic Serial Number (ESN) will be
located on the back of the unit (You will not need to open up the unit to retrieve the ESN). Your
cellular carrier will need this number to enable your Cell2 Interface's wireless modem.
To Enable Wireless AlarmReporting:
1. Disconnect power connections to the Cell2 Interface
2. Remove the 3 screws on the bottom of the Cell2 Interface near the front panel.
3. Remove the 3 screws on the top of the Cell2 Interface near the back panel.
4. Remove the Cell2 Interface's cover.
5. If your Cell2 Interface model is GPRS/GSM enabled: Insert a SIMcard in the available modem slot.
Open your Cell2 Interface to insert your SIM card or take down your ESN
6. Replace the Cell2 Interface's top-cover and fasten it to the Cell2 Interface with the 6 screws you
removed in steps 1 and 2.
7. Attach the antenna that came with your Cell2 Interface (2-901-00802-01) to the node labeled
Antenna, and tighten the nut to fasten it to the Cell2 Interface.

Quick Start: How to Connect to the Cell2 Interface
7
Most users find it easiest to give the unit an IP address, subnet and gateway through the front craft port (TTY
interface) to start. Once these settings are saved and you reboot the unit, you can access it over LAN to do the rest
of your databasing via the Web Browser interface.
Alternative option: You can skip the TTY interface by using a LAN crossover cable directly from your PC to the
Cell2 Interface and access its Web Browser. See Section Cell2 Interface Web Browser.
...via Craft Port7.1
1. The simplest way to connect to the Cell2 Interface is over a physical cable connection between
your PC's USB port and the unit's USB craft port. Note: You must be connected via craft port or
Telnet to use the TTYinterface. Make sure you are using a standard A-B USB cable (this same
cable is commonly used for USB printers) to make a USB craft port connection. We'll be using
HyperTerminal to connect to the unit in the following example - however, most terminal-emulating
programs are also compatible.
Note: The following images display the setup process done in Windows XP.
The following steps will occur the first time any DPS USB equipment is used on this PC. If you've
used a different DPS USB device before and have installed the DPS USB drivers, then skip to Step
9.
When you first connect the Cell2 Interface to your PC via USB, a "Found New Hardware" message
will appear:
1. Click the "Found New Hardware" message/icon to launch the "Found New Hardware Wizard".

15
2. Select "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)"
3. Click "Next >"
4. Select "Search for the best driver in these locations."
5. Insert Cell2 Interface Resource Disc (CD) into your PC.
6. Click "Browse"

16
7. Select the "Driver" folder of your Cell2 Interface Resource Disc Disc (CD) and click "OK"
The following message will confirm installation of a new "USB Communications Port"
8. Click "Finish" to close the Wizard.
Now that the driver has been installed, a new COMport is being emulated on your PC. Before using
hyperterminal, you must confirm the identity of that new COMport (COM1, COM2, COM3...) in the
Windows Device Manager.
